In the us we have a service based economy already. I would say maybe the real estate portion in this case will take a hit but this could actually help alot of people save money both barbers and customers in some cases.
it really depends on how you look at it, i got a friend who owns a successful shop and this type of shyt bothers me.


that being said i don't blame anyone for doing it or using it.

This is an idea that likely only works by destroying existing businesses.

Problems with this is, you gonna get a different barber all the time. Barbers have to have an up to date rating system and pics of previous work.

The service won’t be as intimate and chill as going to your regular barber and talking shyt and chilling.

Good for if you’re out of town and need a cut.

Can they pull up to my workplace? :lupe:

Aint nothing more annoying than getting invited to some event and having to go all the way back home to go to a barber I trust.

This is why i get my hair cut every week cuz im afraid to be caught lacking :sadcam:

This ain't new...

Back in the day I first started working from home too busy for the barbershop..

I had a mobile barber...

Homie was good... Crisp cuts :ohlawd:

And great prices 12 bucks for fade

15 foe fade and beard

It was all good just a week ago


Till the state patrol pulled over his vehicle

And found 4 zips of Dro on him..

I ain't seen him since
:mjcry:

This shyt is genius. fukk whatchu heard.
I love the Black barbershop experience but I dont have time for it anymore.
They said an hour in the article. Sheeeeeeit.
An hour and a half on the conservative side.
I just started lining my own shyt, refreshing my fade or taper
Then that grew to giving myself a full cut
I do a good enough job but it dont compare to how crisp the shop can get it.
:salute:

And if they play this right, this could make some Black barbers that do have their own shops millionaires
I walked by a Floyd's (a national barbershop chain for millennial hipster cacs) and I thought to myself, nikkas should have done this type of shyt years ago.

the app and website is the easy part with this, it's coming up with an idea that's hard.
Do you have a programmer plug for apps? I have some ideas but no one expertise in app development and don’t know who to trust.
